"Who is going to save our Church? Not our bishops, not our priests and religious. It is up to you, the people. You have the minds, the eyes, the ears to save the Church. Your mission is to see that your priests act like priests, your bishops, like bishops, and your religious act like religious." - Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen, 1972

AND ANOTHER COMMENT...

To clarify, the Vatican neither removed Apuron nor did it put him on trial.

Apuron asked to be temporarily replaced by an apostolic administrator who he thought would put down the rebellion and allow him to return, but the rebels were more than the administrator could handle and soon the administrator joined the rebels.

The pope then twice asked Apuron to resign. Apuron refused and asked for a canonical trial. He did this because Apuron has confidence in the NCW control of the Vatican, particularly through Cardinal Filoni who is known as the "red pope," because while still yet a cardinal, is believed to be next in line to be pope and indeed already runs the Vatican.

And as for the polish pope who supposedly underwent a canonical trial, only the first stage of the trial was completed. He died before the criminal phase could be pursued.
